I'm-Not-Ever-Really-Wordless-Wednesday

Patty, from The Maaaaa of Pricilla, and I have a barter agreement going. I send her a weekly package of recordings from some of my fav TV listings (Jeff Lewis' "Flipping Out", "Top Chef" and "Project Runway") and she sends me my fav goat soaps. Somehow I think I'm making out like a bandit in this agreement--little does she know how addicted I am to her glorious soaps.

When I opened my package, I found a couple of frog-shaped soaps that made me laugh out loud. Okay, so she enclosed some cat-shaped soaps too--but they aren't Hobbes-shaped. That would take one pretty large mold and lots of supplies to make one ottman-shaped bar. I think she would lose money making those.

So, I was so excited by my frog soap that I ran out to the pond to snap some frog soap photos. I actually tried to float the little dude on a lily pad, and as I went to snap the photo, he started sinking under the water! Yikes! I had to grab him quickly or I was going to lose him.

Patty nailed it, those are perfect for you. Plus, if you stick them in a ziploc bag so they don't melt away, you can leave them in the pond year round and never have to worry about them hopping off or dying.

Grace and Storm--And cute doesn't even begin to describe how wonderful it is! It just makes your skin super soft too. I know it sounds like a commercial, but you really have to try the stuff. Its addicting.

Ratty--Really?! You didn't notice my picture with Jerry again? Or my cute kitty smelling the flowers? Or how about Violet, my statue? Or.......

I thought you were going to tell us to hunt for the real frog watching the soap frog! Cute little guy... he will sadly suds away his little arms and legs and eyes till all that remains is a belly. What service you demand of your friends!

Sherri--It is rare indeed! I'm not sure frog-shaped goat soap is regularly on the shelves over at her shop. See? A collectors item that has....uh....been "washed away". He was cute while he lasted!

Margo--Yeah, Em tried that here as well. It is GREAT for shaving your legs. Go stock up, Margo! You should not have to live without goat soap!

DG--No, no, no. It's made out of goat's MILK! I just didn't type that part. Sigh. I don't imagine goat meat in my soap to be a good thing. Kinda sad, really.

Cute--That darned Patty has got the whole lot of us addicted! Maybe there is a support group somewhere for those of us who cannot live without her soap. :) And no, your kitties probably won't scratch your eyes out for dressing them up---but they are thinking about it. (Don't tell them, but I think they look hilarious!)

Petula--He was really cute on the lily pad--it could have been an ad for her goat soap. Bummer.

Veronica--Isn't he the cutest thing? I almost felt guilty using it. Almost. :)

Sharky--It's sort of like eating the ears and face off a chocolate bunny--somebody's gotta be the bad guy.

CardioGirl--I'm glad you read the post! Geesh, you think I'm taking pictures of dead frogs??? Ick. That is just wrong--I bury them.

About Me

I just think life is more fun if we notice the little stuff and laugh...a LOT. I'm lucky to live with a family who humors me, joins in the fun and tolerates me most days.
I have a wee house and yard, but it is loaded with adventures. There isn't a backyard pond owner out there who has more stories about her frogs, snails, fish than me. And I don't even make this stuff up!
I'm glad you are here to laugh with me. Welcome, pallies!
